Had a treat today, ran into two of my former babies, I used to take care of both of these lovely children (Christopher and Serenity, brother and sister) pictured when they were infants. Don't let the tough looks (well, at least Serenity's tough look) fool you, these are two of the sweetest kids ever.

Being surrounded by so many tempting books so much nowadays has made me return to my old habit of having my nose in a book pretty much all the time. This is either a really appropriate or inappropriate time for this, I can't decide. I use reading as an escape, I become so immersed in the story I literately can't hear what is going on around me, and need a few moments to adjust to coming back to the "real world" when I put a book down. Basically this is how I survived high school. So is it a healthy mental break or unhealthy escapism? Not sure...

By the way, this book, "The Language of Flowers" by Vanessa Diffenbaugh is especially addicting, I cannot put it down, I would highly recommend it.

Just noticed that my very neglected terrarium that I started back in February (see this post) has a plant that is attempting to escape. Don't know whether seeing this makes me want to tidy up my little garden or just wait and see how it's escape plan goes...

So I haven't been here for awhile, in many senses of the word. Not sure if I have been missed or not, and I almost gave up and took this blog down the other day, but after some consideration I'm back. Long story very short, my life has been turned upside down and shaken around a bit in the last couple of months, and many things are still up in the air. This blog suddenly became very unimportant to me. But as things have calmed down, I've felt the absence of this project, felt ashamed that again I would be not be finishing something I started, and decided to continue on towards "365". Even though I will now not finish on Dec. 31st as I originally planned, but on February 23rd, 2012. Which I just discovered during my calculations, is 108 days from today. So here we go, the Beheaded Goddess gives it another go instead of giving up.
